New SKZ course with Dr. Michael Bosse

With the support of our Dr. Michael Bosse, SKZ is expanding its range of germanspeaking training courses. For the first time, a new, practical course focusing on modeling and simulation in plastics technology will be offered at the SKZ site in Peine on July 3 and 4, 2025. This course provides in-depth knowledge of the effective use of simulation in product development and is intended for plastics industry specialists. Register today!

"Modeling and Simulation in Plastics Technology": Practical and Application-Oriented
Product development is an integral part of daily work in manufacturing companies. Virtual product development enables companies to reduce costs and save time while making a significant contribution to sustainability.

With the new course, the SKZ, in cooperation with SimpaTec, is offering practical training. The two-day course includes a high practical component as well as theory. Participants will learn more about product development and the interaction of material, process and design, the state of the art, the effective use of simulation, the sampling of a component on the injection molding machine with a focus on the validation of simulation results with conclusions and findings and many other topics.

A central component of the course is the practical application of the 'Moldex3D' simulation software. Participants will have the opportunity to carry out a simple filling simulation under supervision. They can also use their own designs in common CAD formats. This experience contributes to optimizing components, tools, and processes, as well as promoting a deeper understanding of simulation possibilities in plastics technology. Using FEM coupling, material databases, and statistical test planning significantly increases the efficiency of product development.

Andreas Grzeskowiak, site manager of the SKZ in Peine, asserts that the new training course on modeling and simulation in plastics technology provides participants with a comprehensive understanding of integrating simulations into the development process, considering material and process parameters. "We are pleased to conduct the course in cooperation with our long-term partner SimpaTec."

"Virtual product development enables companies to reduce costs, save time, and make a decisive contribution to sustainability," adds Dr. Michael Bosse, seminar leader and Technical Sales Manager at SimpaTec. "Our collaboration with the SKZ allows us to convey the optimization potential of digital product development in a practical way. We are confident that this new joint seminar will lead to dynamic discussions and active knowledge transfer."
